Pier Level

“Pier” level contains loads of vegetations along with water and pretty thorough physics calculations, which is why fps in our demo here is not as high as on “Training” level.

Note: minimal fps are marked with white numbers on the diagrams, black numbers represent average fps.

As we noted with the GeForce 6800-series, geometry instancing does not provide huge speed benefit on this level. As a result, it is no surprise that the GeForce 6800 family of graphics processors continues to outperform rivalling RADEON X800 XT and RADEON X800 PRO along with the former champion RADEON 9800 XT.
